Term XXIV Appeals Questionnaire & Questions Post

[ariake.livejournal.com]

Welcome to the official appeals questionnaire entry!

Have you read the guidelines in our user information? Think you can handle that? If so, feel free to fill out this handy-dandy questionnaire:

ATTENTION ALL NEW APPLICANTS

It has come to my attention that this post isn't a secure place to post appeals due to the fact that people are sent notifications when I'm forced to unscreen applications to respond to them. Because I want to keep your privacy, as the applicant, secure until you actually start your appeal, we are going to experiment with a new procedure.

Please submit your application for an appeal via Google Docs:

APPLICATION TO APPEAL HERE

Once you've submitted that, please comment here with your name and house just so I make sure to get a notification/don't miss your appeal. Since I won't respond to your comment, your appeal should stay private until it actually starts. All further communication will be via email or PM.

This is also the place to come to if you have any questions about the appeals process. Comments are screened.

Hi Pheobe,

The approval process for your appeal has started! There is one appeal ahead of you in the queue as well as one in progress, so if approved, I would anticipate starting your appeal between July 3rd and 6th. I will let you know a more firm date once your appeal is approved and we're a bit closer, but please let me know if any time in early July absolutely won't work for you so we can work around that!

Thanks,

Sara

I would say the more thorough to start with, the better. The more information we have when voting on your appeal, the better, so give us all you can to start with and then the judges can ask for the information they feel is missing/that they still want after the fact. :)

Hi Pheobe,

Your appeal has been approved! Feel free to start working on your application, and I'll let you know when you can request access to the appeals community. Unless you have any objections/know you'll be busy, I plan to drop your appeal on July 6th Asia time/July 5th USA time. The judges will have questions for you that will need to be answered within a week or so of the drop date, so please let me know if you will be unavailable that week or have any other issues that might impact your appeal. If there are no issues, I'll plan to drop it then, so keep working on that application and I'll be back in touch when you can request access to the community!

Thanks,

Sara

Hi Pheobe,

You are now welcome to request membership to hih_appeals. When you are ready, please post your finished appeal as an entry to the community's queue. As mentioned before, look for the appeal to start the 5th/6th of July. Our prior appeal has been canceled, but we'll keep to our original schedule regardless, so please get your application in the queue as soon as possible so we don't have any delays in the process.

Thanks,

Sara
